Health care services in Southeastern Kentucky

UK HealthCare’s goal is to provide advanced care to keep southeastern Kentuckians close to home for as much of their health care as possible.

This approach to care is convenient for patients and families, reducing travel expenses and time away from home. It also allows your doctor, who knows you best to coordinate and manage your care. And it often results in less expensive care delivered in local physician offices and hospitals.

UK HealthCare is committed to caring for the health needs of all Kentuckians. We look forward to serving more physicians and patients either locally or in Lexington when needed.
